    I think you can use more than one of the Advantage Machine vouchers, but such as the No7 vouchers and TD vouchers you can only use one of each per transaction.

    Thanks.

    Yes I am aware of the No7 and the leaflet vouchers being one per transaction NOT one per customer.

    But I was referring to two for the same product AD machine vouchers as that does states one per transcation. I have used more than one of a different type of AD machine voucher. But have never had the nerve to try two identical ones.

    Dam I missed out on 250points in the last week alone. Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    Hey ho worse things happen at see. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got the boots deal and have yet to do the £5 off No 7 but keep hearing on site about a AD machine - what are you all talking about????????????as i am missing out on that. Also got the max factor cinema deal and aveeno oh and i really can't remember what else but petrified of missing some of these coupons. Can anyone also tell me how i do the Tesco code stuff and money of coupons and all that blarb as can't find the original links for information.

    thanks everyone
  • AD or AC machine is the Boots Advantage card machine in larger branches, I mainly ignored this until I found this site. You get a variety of vouchers valid for that day, some are worth getting, some not. Sign up for a card instore - and tick the box to say they can post you stuff too, you'll get vouchers and freebies.

    Have seen some little pink No7 gift bags reduced to £5 - anyone know whats in them?? - Dont know why I didn;t just look - didn;t want to draw too much attention to myself - lol


    Hi Lisa

    They had those in my boots a few days ago - I didn't get any so can't tell you exactly what was in them, but I know there was definately a small foundation, and definately a toner, i think also lipstick and mascara. Think there was about 7 things in total , makeup and sincare small size stuff. I think it should say on the tag whats in it, at ours someone had left the products from one of them out so you could see whatsin it as they were fastemed shut with a plastic tag.

    HTH

    Most of the bigger stores have an advantage card machine. If you have an advantagge card pop it in and will offer you extra points for spending. It can be total spend offers or some many points when you buy a certain product etc. And if you get on the mailing list they will send you money off vouchers, double point vouchers etc every so often.

    And if you go to here you can search your local stores. And if you click on store details will even tell you if the store has a advantage point machine as boots seems to call them.

    Hope that helps.

    Yours

    It does seem that some of the vouchers in the leaflets give you a discount PER item - certainly the aromatherapy one does.

    But... to confuse the issue :j

    In Cheltenham Gallagher Retail, there were/are pink (not the Christmas spend £15 get one free red ones) which are similar. They contain 7 items - lipstick, nail polish, mascara, similar skincare bits. However - I did get the opportunity to check one bag which contained a voucher and it expired in Feb 2005. So make sure the price is very cheap on this bag (ours were down to £5, I tried it with the No7 voucher, which didn't work, so I decided not to take it at that price) because the products vary between 12 and 24months useby symbols and that's assuming no-one has twisted a lid anywhere at any time to see what the product is like. In actual terms you might just be buying the makeup and not sure if the skincare is okay to use.
